Kaywoodie 1930s Shank Logo Chubby Pair

[dixie]

Two of my grail pipes showed up last weekend by 2 different sellers on eBay. One was a BIN and the other I negotiated a BIN for a unbelievable price on the pair. Shank Logo Kaywoodies are not impossible to find but these 2 shapes in this condition dont come around too often. The straight chubby 5088B is slightly older marked Super Grain Grecian Briar and the bent chubby is marked 5188B Super Grain Imported Briar. I have only lightly cleaned, they will need stem work to get rid of oxidation but they were really in amazing shape for early 30's pipes!

Nice pipes! Still some green on the stems. Break out the Magic Eraser! :wink:

Great rare finds. I've had a shank 5088B for at least 4 years now and this is only the 2nd one I've seen. I think the 5188B may be a bit more common.

Absolutely superb Kaywoodie Dawg's may they bring you many fine smokes.

I wondered what happened to the 5183B auction that disappeared from the "Active" section of my Watchlist.
